Is there any open-source library that supports this? We don't write codecs here. (Well, actually we do, but not tracked in this bug tracker.)
It looks like it's h.264 with a different "ts packets, each packet is having 4 bytes of extra header,which is nothing but timestamp information, that means each packet is of 192 bytes." http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.video.gstreamer.devel/19157 Jan Schmidt thinks "There's a few key places where it would need adapting, but should only be an afternoon's work for someone."
Is anybody working on this?
AVCHD has worked for some time. There are some problematic details such as seeking in MPEG-TS files, but those are covered in other bugs.
Hmm, I should test. Last time I tried on my PS3 we have a 99% solution. Meaning that the PS3 thought the file generated by GStreamer was corrupt, but it did play it without problems.
